Accommodation  

back


Even before you arrive, you can choose, through the site, the house/room where you will stay during your Erasmus programme. You just have to look through the offers we have available and reserve the one you prefer.


Once you have made your choice, you can then make the reservation through our site by selecting the button “book now”.


We strongly advise you, before you make any decision, to have a look at the contract which includes:


House utilisation rules;

 

Conditions of payment.


By making a reservation you are automatically accepting the conditions set out in the documents.


Once you have made the reservation, you will receive an email asking you for the following:


Information on the date and time of you arrival and flight number (optional);

 

Photocopy of your identification and student card;

 

The transfer of an amount as specified in the terms of payment, concerning a security and first payment.


The reservation will remain on hold until the money had been transferred. If the money is not received within 3 working days your reservation will be considered null and void.



In case you decide to cancel after the reservation is made:


With more than 30 days’ prior notice you will be completely refunded;

 

Between 30 and 15 days’ prior notice, 50% of your deposit will be refunded;

 

With less than 15 days’ prior notice there will be no refund.


If, as a result of force majeure, the house you have reserved is not available, StayinPortugal will find you another house or, as an alternative, will refund the total amount of money paid for your reservation.


In case you have given us the optional information requested in the above-mentioned email, our team will be at the airport upon your arrival and will take you to your new home.


While you are here, StayinPortugal will always be available to help you solve any problem.

On the week of departure, our organisation will check your house to verify that is in the same condition as when you arrived, in order to return the deposit you were required to pay upon reservation.
